Moving WP-Content (icons go missing)

  • Hi,

    I’ve done a this exact process on another site (same theme) and it worked perfectly. However, for my site with content, it works, but all the icons from my theme disappear.

    Here’s what I’ve done:
    1. Renamed wp-content to assets (in my FTP)
    2. Added the following to wp-config.php

    define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/assets' );
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', 'https://website.com/assets' );
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/assets/plugins' );
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_URL', 'https://website.com/assets/plugins' );
define( 'PLUGINDIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/assets/plugins' );
$theme_root = WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/assets/themes';
define( 'UPLOADS', 'assets/images' );

    It works (site content is there, also plugins) but the theme’s icons are missing. I did this exact process on another site and it worked 100%.

    I re-installed the theme but it still isn’t finding the icons.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  • try running website through gtmetrix.com and check all 404 errors and what path they pick up.

    Where can I check for 404 errors? I’m only getting speed info.

    I just deleted my entire site, including tables in myPHP.

    With no plugins or pages installed- the problem replicated.

    So is it something to do with my host?

    check under timeline tab. as you are facing issue only with theme icons and other images load fine, your theme has some issue.

    can you select the icon and see the path from which it is fetching the images, most probably it is broken.
